  1. Watts school of Nursing newbie

    Krissy, Sign up immediately. It is hard to get a seat, and, you really don't need that much time to study. You need 50% to pass...that is a easy enough if you are prepared for the way the test is run. Most people are clueless and end up being on q...
  2. Watts school of Nursing newbie

    Krissy, That book is fine but the reading examples are NOTHING like the those on the test. The math and language is similar. You really get only 30 min for 90 questions. The spatials are easy enough but the only examples you get are the ones on th...
  3. Watts school of Nursing newbie

    Krissy_g, The test has no science. Part one is math, verbal and spatials (90 questions in 30 min). Part 2 is Reading Comp (40 questions in 15 min). The goal is to move fast rather than take your time. Spend 10 sec on question. If you know it, answe...
  4. Are they online course for you? I had to take a filler class because those two courses were transferred from my colllege education.
  5. Thank you JL- what class(es) do you have?
  6. Just remember that we who speak English as our first language also struggle from communication skills and time management. Life is a work in progress.Since you have identified your problem (half the battle) the next step would be to actively work to...
  7. If you have any degrees you will not get any grants but you depending upon your income you will be eligible for financial aid...they will meet with you and explain all of it to you. Hopefully you will get the loans you need.
  8. YAY!!! Congratulations Natalie! We definitely have room for you. I am a single mom of four but older (not willing to give that away just yet). See you in May for orientation!!!
  9. I know you didn't ask, but if you stand a chance to get into Watts go for it. They have an incredible reputation and even more incredible number of students who pass the NCLEX first time out. They are so organized and provide you with great clinical...
  10. Calling any Watts School of Nursing Students!!!

    Nice job!!! Now you will be a people nurse!
  11. I think it would completely depend upon whether or not there are any more slots available for this cohort. I would definitely call her and ask. You have nothing to lose by doing that, and then you can plan for your the rest of your year if won't be g...
  12. No luck with grants if you already have a degree Classes start May 29th. I can't wait to meet everyone at orientation!
  13. SWEET!!! See you at orientation!!!
  14. My girlfriend just finished nursing school and she handed me her NCLEX RN study guide and said "they gave this to me the third semester and I wish I'd had it from the start..." I start my nursing program in January after 6 mos of human sciences (Wat...
  15. Bubblyte, It probably is but. It depends upon whether or not you can get your stuff in quickly after you get your test back AND if the spots have all been filled. You can probably ask the recruiter this question. It takes 2 weeks to get your test ...
  16. Ok...keep posting away :). You probably don't need much at this point.
  17. I just sent you an IM...see if you can find it...
  18. When you get there the counselor will show you what is available. I am not going for my BSN. I have two degrees already and think that I will stick with floor nursing rather than management. However, I chose a business course that seems to be commo...
  19. I was able to get out of several too. I think what happens in this case is we end up taking one or two on-line class for the first 5 weeks (May 28th start date- but really May 29th because that is Memorial day) and then we take the core courses that ...
  20. Kmitch, First you will get a letter from MOC and they will tell you to get signed in on your Fafsa. Once you have that done someone will call you. You will meet with a lady who will create your curriculum (we are all in the same classes), then anoth...
  21. You have to first send in $100 to show your intention to attend the school. Then there is a letter followed by a call. There is yet another $50 to Mt Olive...the call came about 4 days after the letter.
  22. I am meeting with the MT. Olive team tomorrow to get squared away with courses and tuition. I have a friend who just graduated from WATTS, passed her nclex and is starting work at the end of this month. She told me that WATTS is really organized. I...
  23. Excellent Kmitch! Hotsoup- I hope this is your week to get that letter! I got my first correspondence from Mt Olive this past Wednesday. Now I will wait for the call. It would be good to get an understanding of what kind of coursed we are taking a...
  24. Hi! It took me 1 week after I sent in my money for the background check. But for some reason I think that's a little bit faster. May be that they don't have too many applicants right now. How long have you waited so far?
  25. Hot Soup have you heard anything yet?
